More quotes by Robert Fulghum
But love may have to be left off the exam. Most of us will never learn.
Robert Fulghum
Play fair. Don't hit people. Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Robert Fulghum
I get tired of hearing it's a crummy world and that people are no damned good. What kind of talk is that? I know a place in Payette, Idaho, where a cook and a waitress and a manager put everything they've got into laying a chicken-fried steak on you.
Robert Fulghum
I've always made a clear distinction between making a life and making a living.
Robert Fulghum
It doesn’t matter what you say you believe - it only matters what you do.
Robert Fulghum
The gift was not large as money goes, and my need was not great, but the spirit of the gift is beyond price and leaves me blessed and in debt.
Robert Fulghum
The point is that getting married for lust or money or social status or even love is usually trouble. The point is that marriage is a maze into which we wander - a maze that is best got through with a great companion.
Robert Fulghum
There is nothing in your budget for joy. No books, no flowers, no music, not even a cold beer. And there is nothing in your budget to give away to someone else. We don’t help people who don’t have better values than you do.
Robert Fulghum
As one old gentleman put it, Son, I don't care if you're stark nekkid and wear a bone in your nose. If you kin fiddle, you're all right with me. It's the music we make that counts.
Robert Fulghum
For all my good intentions, there are days when things go wrong or I fall into old habits. When things are not going well, when I'm grumpy or mad, I'll realize that I've not been paying attention to my soul and I've not been following my best routine.
Robert Fulghum
This is an exercise in power - the power of mind over matter. If you don't mind being inadequate, it doesn't matter.
Robert Fulghum
Why is love easy? I don’t know. And the raccoons don’t say.
Robert Fulghum
We’re all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness — and call it love — true love.
Robert Fulghum
Life is. I am. Anything might happen.
Robert Fulghum
To insist on one's place in the scheme of things and to live up to that place.To empower others in their reaching for some place in the scheme of things.To do these things is to make fairy tales come true.
Robert Fulghum
Wisdom was not at the top of the graduate-school mountain, but there at the sandpile at Sunday School.
Robert Fulghum
I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge. That myth is more potent than history. That dreams are more powerful than facts. That hope always triumphs over experience. That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.
Robert Fulghum
And good neighbors make a huge difference in the quality of life. I agree.
Robert Fulghum
Love the battle between chaos and imagination. Remember: Acting is living truthfully in imaginary circumstances. Remember: Acting is the way to live the greatest number of lives. Remember: Acting is the same as real life, lived intentionally. Never forget: The Fruit is out on the end of the limb. Go there.
Robert Fulghum
About winning and losing: It isn't important, what really counts is how you play the game. About playing the game: PLAY TO WIN!
